If tonewood is all marketing BS than why do Hollowbody/semi-hollow body guitars exist? Since by the same logic, hollow body guitars shouldn't have much or any impact on sound/tone. And I'm asking this as a genuine question towards people that argue against tonewood.
I am grateful that people who have a passion for something can sometimes turn that thing into a good living. Andy’s story is great, and Taylor guitars are also great.
What you had to say about Adam Savage is how I felt about you. Seeing you talk about ADHD in a very real and raw manner helped me come to terms with my own struggles. I remember telling my girlfriend about how one of my favorite creators was just like me.
10:00 100% , it ain't mojo, its just grime that as mentioned will not only make a fret job harder, is probably aiding corrosion and abrasion and shorter fret life
I always love hearing the passionate "Makers" in the guitar industry talk. That's why all my favorite episodes of tone talk are the ones where they talk to other passionate builders like Mike Soldano, John Suhr, Steve Fryette, Lindy Fralin, Jon Cusack, or MJ from Seymour Duncan. Some of them are legends, and some of them are hardly known too. It's funny that the more you go down the acoustic rabbit hole you realize how complicated they are.
I have toxic sweat so my fingerboard pretty much gets scrubbed each string change on my main guitar, it’s like brushing your teeth after a meal. It’s a must.
OK well I sure learned a lot during that episode! What a great guy. I'm biased ... finally invested in a higher end acoustic and it's a Taylor (517 in my case). Every Taylor I've ever played, across the range, have all been great guitars. Never played a bad one.
Ya’ll should name the studio Muscle Shulls. Not only as an obvious tribute the iconic Alabama studio, but also an acknowledgment of all the hard work (hence: muscle) it took to put the thing together. Plus it’s at Rhett’s house so…it’s “Shull’s”.
my ADD I now believe is an asset not handicap especially with creativity. Once I finally understood it and how it affects my mindset I felt like I could/can use it to be more productive. And I ❤ my Taylor 310
I’ve only played one Taylor. Disliked it a great deal. But…..it’s not really fair to judge a company on a base model. This was so informative. Will be giving Taylor a second look when I get a new acoustic.
I just build a Tele-master style guitar with a tiltback reverse tele-esk headstock. Going to be deep diving into duplex scaling resonance now... Anyone know what color of bandanna has the best tone?
Oh…what? What special effects? Star Wars? I’m gonna be serious for a minute. Just barely 400 likes, and this video has been up for 10 days. Ya gotta cut the homey, cuddley, … I expected Andy Powers, my hero, to be taking tone wood. Come on! People know both of you guys. People love both of you guys. I love both of you guys. Take a closer look at what your intentions are. Do that. Move on. Save the other, quite lengthy, stories for the family barbecue. Good luck, Fellas! JJZ…(°¿.°`)
Great conversation. Tone woods explained brilliantly. EVERYTHING has a resonant frequency. So it all matters. Science doesn't care what your opinion of it is 😂
@@YeatzeeGuitar if andy took a week off work the company would keep going just fine I imagine. if all the production workers took a week off work, the company would incur huge amounts of debt and disappointed customers. sounds like a typical CEO to me.
Sorry Rhett, but I disagree, if it doesn't matter to them (the deniers) then it doesn't matter end of story? That is fallacy, because they come on here and FIGHT with us that KNOW how tonewoods work. IT WOULD NOT MATTER IF THEY DID NOT FIGHT US OVER THIER ERROR!!!!!!!! And this mans argument/statement about the subject is PROVEN FACT, not opinion, so his statements stand as TRUTH in this matter!! Well done.
Obviously your studio name is Muscle Shulls

I wasn't expecting this to be my favorite episode. Andy is a great conversationalist
Dude, I stone cold sober started trippin' on the basket weave outro! Nice touch 🤘

My favourite acoustic sound is Taylor. Loved this interview.

This was one my favorite episodes you’ve done.
Straight from the horse's mouth!
Great content guys, I'm a weekly watcher from the start. Thanks for all you guys do for the guitar community!

This was probably y'all's best episode. When Andy started going hard on the physics I really liked it.
I NEED MORE DUPLEX SCALING TALK IN MY LIFE. This is the kind of content I am looking for
Literally no one:
Rhett whenever he sees a Deco: 13/10 Shoyles
Late to the party, but I'm very happy that Brian Wampler bought Taylor Guitars!!!
Thanks for having Andy on. Fantastic discussion.
Plan B Studio
PBS! Fantastic
Brad Pitt already named his studio that so bad choice
This wins.
There is now a plan B
😂😂😂😂
Interesting episode thanks! I had to look up who Adam Savage is, but that’s okay.
For mine, I like Cedar tops…more warmth to my ears.
“Muscle Shull’s Studio”
“No Plan B Studios”
Ya’ll should name the studio Muscle Shulls.
Not only as an obvious tribute the iconic Alabama studio, but also an acknowledgment of all the hard work (hence: muscle) it took to put the thing together.
Plus it’s at Rhett’s house so…it’s “Shull’s”.
Audio Sprockets Tone Dexter is the pedal that Zack was talking about. I've used them in the past, on upright bass, and they kick ass!
well shit.... should've listened a little longer :P at least I was right 🤷🏽♀ lol
my ADD I now believe is an asset not handicap especially with creativity. Once I finally understood it and how it affects my mindset I felt like I could/can use it to be more productive. And I ❤ my Taylor 310
This is awesome. What a difference to have the insights of true experts, not just the voice of the opinionated.
If Rhett’s studio isn’t named “The Shull Sound” I’m going to be disappointed.
I think with everyone on the same page with Muscle Shull’s, you know what the name has to be.
Isn’t that the guy who met Adam savage
Ha ha ha, I usually use completely off the path woods from the Florida Keys and they do sound great, IMO.
Great episode.
plug for Kingsley tube preamp pedals
Enjoyed this one guys.
I’ve only played one Taylor. Disliked it a great deal. But…..it’s not really fair to judge a company on a base model. This was so informative. Will be giving Taylor a second look when I get a new acoustic.
Did anyone else get the vibe that there was a little embellishment going on in the Andy Powers origin story? 🤣

Tube Screamer Studio
Cool interview.
Well done! I really enjoyed this.
What a wise & interesting guy.
Great episode! Andy spitting knowledge.
Is that spicy watch an Omega Seamaster Diver on a Milanese bracelet?
Red Skull Studios. But Metal only please.
Plan B Studios?
Plan A Studio, there is no plan B.
The studio: Muscle Schull’s
Retro Fit Studios. Or Rhettro Fit Studios.
I like how they changed the name of the video to Taylor ceo cause no one knew who this guy was.
The Shullnker, The Rhett Cave…
Martin Silk and Steel
I think if Mike Campbells tech would clean his Tele's fretboard, he'd get fired.
Are you Rhetty studio?
Early squad!

A comment to help with the algorithm :-)
Money trap studio 😂
Is Andy the most interesting man in the world?
Mussel Schulls
tbh, ceo's talking to ceo's about being a ceo is deeply unrelatable to me
Andy is hardly a typical ceo.
@@YeatzeeGuitar if andy took a week off work the company would keep going just fine I imagine. if all the production workers took a week off work, the company would incur huge amounts of debt and disappointed customers. sounds like a typical CEO to me.
@@drewkoszulinski8065 ah so you're one of those... K 🥴👍
Rhett buy a Cole Clark guitar.
i dont care what anyone says, the wood on a *solid body electric guitar* makes literally no difference in tone
